fled below the table nor so that the face of any card may be seen. 29. The dealer's partner must collect the cards from the preceding deal and has the right to shuffle first. Each player has the right to shuffle subsequently. The dealer has the right to shuffle last; but, should a card or cards be seen during his shuffling, or while giving the pack to be cut, he must re-shuffle. 30. After shuffling, the cards properly collected must be placed face downward to the left of the next dealer, where they must remain untouched until the play with the other pack is finished. THE DEAL 31. Each player deals in his turn; the order of dealing is to the left. 32. The player on the dealer's right cuts the pack, and in dividing it he must leave not fewer than four cards in each packet; if in cutting or in replacing one of the two packets a card is exposed, or if there is any confusion or doubt as to the exact place in which the pack was divided, there must be a fresh cut. 33. When the player whose duty it is to cut has once separated the pack, he can neither re-shuffle nor re-cut, except as provided in Law 32. 34. Should the dealer shuffle the cards after the cut, the pack must be cut again. 35. The fifty-two cards shall be dealt face downward. The deal is not completed until the last card has been dealt. 36. In the event of a misdeal the cards must be dealt again by the same player. A NEW DEAL 37. There _must_ be a new deal-- _a_ If the cards are not dealt into four packets, one at a time and in regular rotation, beginning at the dealer's left. _b_ If, during a deal, or during the play, the pack is proven incorrect or imperfect. _c_ If any card is faced in the pack or is exposed during the deal on, above or below the table. _d_ If any player has dealt to him a greater number of cards than thirteen, whether discovered before or during the play. _e_ If the dealer deal two cards at once and then deal a third before correcting the error. _f_ If the dealer omit to have the pack cut and either adversary calls attention to the fact prior to the completion of the deal and before either adversary has looked at any of his cards. _g_ If the last card does not come in its regular order to the dealer. 38. Should three players have their right number of cards, the fourth, less, and not discover such deficiency until he has played, the deal
